Twilight



So it's official I've joined the whole "Twilight Bandwagon".


I finally read the first book and I loved it. Everyone had been telling me over the past few months to read it but I wasn't interested in the books at all. I thought to myself what vampires and werewolves no thanks I'm not interested. But then a few people I talked to told me that it wasn't all about vampires and it was almost a love story. But I still refused not understanding what all the hype and buzz was for these books.


So last week I was talking to a few of the girls that I work with and one of them (who loves the books), couldn't believe that I hadn't read any of them. And that I wasn't even interested. She told me that I should at least read the first one and if I didn't like it fine but at least give it a chance. So I said ok and the next day she brought the book to me.


Last Thursday I decided to start reading it. And looking at this huge 400+ page book I thought its going to take me at least a year to finish this book. So I started reading and wow its just such an easy book to read. When I reading it I just got so into it and didn't even notice how long I'd been reading and I didn't want to set the book down.


But yes I really did enjoy it a lot and it was much better than I thought it was going to be. I still can't believe it took me less than a week to finish it and that I actually remember what I read. If only the books I had to read in my English classes back in High School could have been so easy to read. Well now I just can't wait to start reading Eclipse.

I seriously can't even believe that you had no interest in reading in them. I love Edward! I am at 500 in Breaking Dawn. I am enjoying it cause I don't want it to end. New Moon was a little slow but Eclipse was easier to get through. Let me know what you think of them when you are finished.

I think I started out like you. Pfft! It's just some book. It can't be that exciting. But hearing people talk about the series more and more I think I really want to try it. I haven't yet though.
